Question First RTW

I'm looking at my first RTW trip this year.

My routing is West to East from LAX. One route would have me route to SYD and to Europe. I saw Emirates has their new A380 flying SYD to DXB and on to LHR. However, when I used the Star Tool to book an itenerary, it didn't show up as an option.

Does Emirates exclude RTW fares? I don't see any flights in or out of DXB on Emirates (regardless of aircraft).

Thanks.

Of course they're not. <sigh>

Sorry. Thanks.
